Chapter 2 NOTICE

• "Enter the customer, the price is like Divisoria, twenty-twenty, ten-ten.” The saleswoman was swaying her hips, dancing while chanting those songs. I smiled and shook my head. The sellers will actually do anything to sell.
• I walk to the university where I am studying. Every day I pass by the market because I don't ride, I just walk.
• "Miss!"
• I turned around and stopped walking.
• The tricycle driver looked at me with a smile. "Step aside, you're beautiful. Do not let my tricycle run over you."
• I quietly stepped aside and ignored him. After a long-distance walk, I reached my destination well.
• I glanced at the entire Medical International University (MIU). It's just a year and I'll leave you because I will graduate soon. Goodbye, poor life. The pain crept into my mind as I remembered our perforated house in Camarines Norte, we had nothing to eat, and mom and dad were almost hunched over farming but had no advancement in life. I tried to get a scholarship here even though we are poor, everyone here is rich. Studying in the morning and in the evening was having a part-time job as a waitress.
• "Get out of my way! Yuck! Garbage." A woman rebuked me so I flew away and someone caught me. I was devastated to notice the wide chest and muscular body.
• Who is this? I looked up and saw... the handsome guy. Adonis personified. Goddess of all goddesses. Woah!
• I was stunned by the man's handsomeness. Thick eyebrows, sharp nose, red and thin lips. Perfect look of a man. It was as if I wanted to melt into my position because of the shame and admiration I felt. I stared at his face for so long. I just woke up when he faked his sneeze.
• I hope you didn't wake me up.
• "Excuse me." He frowned at me. You can see his irritated aura on his face but his voice is like music to my ears.
• "I said excuse me? Are you deaf or something?" Running out of patience he says.
• It was only then that I noticed that I was blocking his path.
• "I'm sorry," I nodded in embarrassment and moved aside.
• Without saying a word he passed me. That's how I refrained from looking at him again.
• Does anyone live so handsome? I asked in my mind.
• "But rude," I whispered.
• "Maybe you want him to pay attention to you? What! You want that handsome guy to notice you? In your dreams!!" A woman said to me flatly.
• I even pointed at myself but he raised an eyebrow at me. Is she talking to me?
• "You, bitch!" He kicked me. I was so shocked. I grabbed my cheek. It hurts me so much.
• What am I doing with this clown-faced girl?
• "What did I do to you? Huh?" I asked her while rubbing my cheek. Seriously, I'm not doing anything. She slapped me all of a sudden.
• "Why are you not still answering Queen Gela, huh?" Another woman with her said. There were three of them. Queen Gela?
• I laughed out loud. I even covered my mouth so as not to laugh but the sound really appeared and my stomach almost hurt.
• "What's funny?" Another woman said calmly and then folded his arms.
• "How did she become Queen? She doesn't look like that," I laughed out loud causing their eyebrows to raise so high.
• "Are you annoying me?" said Gela.
• "What if yes? What are you going to do?" I smiled sarcastically but was stunned when she was about to attack me again but there was a hand that took his hand and slapped his own hand right on her face.
• "Stop bullying friend if you don't want me to erase your ugly face!"
• Alem said calmly. I smiled at her. She is a friend of mine who is really reliable.
• The three were about to start but Alem raised an eyebrow at them and let out a punching action so they could do nothing but leave in a hurry.
• "We'll see each other again!" Gela shouted.
• "We probably have eyes!" Alem said calmly and raised her eyebrows. If you are Gela, you would be afraid of her. You don't want to hang out with her anymore because she's the queen of bitches. Just kidding. She is my only friend who accepted my garbage personality because I was just poor. Even though we live far apart, our status was different, our friendship is what binds the two of us together. Alemia Montero, my only best friend.
• "Come on." Alem nursed me and clung to my arm. "You don’t need to be kind next time. Don't let others bully you."
• "Let them. I don’t mind."
• "No way, I'm allergic to those faces."
• I just laughed at her cleverness.
• "Why is Gela mad at you?" She bit her food.
• We are in the canteen now and eating while talking.
• "I don't know, she said I was getting the attention of that handsome man but he was rude."
• "Which man?" Who is that?
• "I don't know," I gasped as I glanced at the man the women were harassing. "That man." I pointed at him. Alem followed the direction I was looking.
• "He?" Her eyes widened and she screamed loudly. "You don't know him?"
• I shook my head and just blew up. The strength of that man's presence still felt like it was giving me energy that crawled all over my body to become electricity.
• Why do I not know him? Maybe I was busy studying.
• "Seriously?" Alem definitely asked me a question.
• "Why do I need to know him?" My innocent question.
• "Laurent Baider! Baider! Baider!" Alem repeatedly said the word Baider so my forehead furrowed.
• "Yes?" We turned to the speaker and looked at Laurent Baider in shock.
• Laurent Baider...
• Why is his name so beautiful?
• Why does that caress my whole being?
• "Are you calling me?" Laurent asked me rudely.
• Why me? It was Alem who spoke.
• I was in confusion so he raised two eyebrows at me.
• "Are you trying to get my attention, Miss?" His insult was still there.
• I shook again. I felt like everyone was looking at us and wondering why we were talking so I looked down and didn’t look directly into his eyes.
• But I was shocked when he brought his face close to mine and grinned. Our noses almost touched because he was so close. Even if I wanted to step back, I couldn't do it as if I was stuck in the seat.
• "You don't have to get my attention because I've already noticed you."
